Searching for friendship or/and romance. I would like to find a companion to go ride the fun things in life, to live the fun things in life.

I seek happiness in the outdoors. I love mountain serenity, the sound and smell of rain, moonlight walks, fireplaces. Also snuggles and hugs, kisses, quiet passion as well as intimacyof touching. Going for a healthy bicycle ride which provides me with the essence of the above; also skiing Colorado.

Activities/hobbies I enjoy are writing romance stories, snow skiing, bird watching, model railroad (N scale), stock markets, my computer/the internet. I find these things spiritual, especially watching birds. My travels usually find me wearing outdoor gear.

Who am I in relation to my (potential) partner? I am a lover, friend, pal, consort, sounding board, a partner. I am a source of ideas, a source of love, a source of compassion, a source of friendship, a source of integrity. It feels whole, complete, loving, erogenous, amorous, yet not quite fully satisfied wanting to explore and expand.

Working on my spirituality and being present. Writing romance stories. Ski in winter; otherwise ride bicycle; bird watching always. Visit with family. Explore the internet with my computer. Manage a portfolio of stocks and bonds.

Someone told me:
You need someone who responds to the fact that you enjoy the reassurance of physical contact and emotional sharing, but who helps keeps dependency in check in the relationship so that you two do not lose your identities as individuals and whose character is deserving of your loyalty and affection.
You need someone who believes and acts on the belief that the intimacy of a relationship is sacred.
You need someone who is extremely supportive of your goals by showing patience and a positive outlook and who also frequently acknowledges and praises your small and large accomplishments.
You need someone who will be patient and supportive as you figure out your needs rather than who will rush the relationship prematurely.
You need someone who will not put up emotional barriers when you seek to understand his/her thoughts and feelings, but rather will communicate with you intimately and candidly.
You need someone who will join you in taking time to find a complete and genuine resolution to issues as opposed to avoiding conflict by settling for quick, temporary agreements.
You need someone who regards sex as a meaningful bond between people in love and who appreciates when it is planned to some extent rather than completely spontaneous.
You need someone who satisfies the hopeless romantic in you but who will insist that you take time to get to know each other well before the taking the relationship to next levels.
You need someone who can express affection openly and directly – such as spontaneous compliments, daily “I love you’s,” occasional notes for you to find and recognition of your achievements.
You need someone who can show affection in ways other than just spending time with you – such as talking at home, taking leisurely strolls outside or extended road trips.

My magnificent partner (who has not introduced herself to me yet).

My partner is happy outdoors with whatever the universe is offering in the moment. She enjoys its sweet offerings of flowers and critters, aromas and sounds. She is delighted to be in the woods, to dance in the rain, to feel the radiant warmth of the sun bathe her skin, to laugh with the wind, or to let her spirit soar amongst the clouds.

My partner is happy indoors. She enjoys actively participating and listening when we discuss issues with intellectual thoughtfulness. She tells me how she enjoys her own special passions, and I take pleasure listening. She appreciates my activities, even though she does not participate in all of them.

My partner enjoys the energy of boisterous loving tempest full of playful laughter and quiet energy of loving during intimate serenity. She loves me wholly as I radiate in her magnificence. We reflect the love we have for each other while we float on undulating waves in oceans of ecstasy. We continually surrender to the essence of our ONE LOVE.

We have a sense of caring for the important things by living a healthy lifestyle - mental, spiritual and physical. Together, we seek to master an alive relationship - cerebral, tantric, sacred - that absorbs all the senses, which persistently grows into a more enduring, enchanted romance.

I write romantic stories that I'm trying to sell to an agent.

You are any of the following: romantic, sensual, tantric, vulnerable, sensitive, intellectual, emotional, spiritual.

You want to share and enjoy a warm discussion! You want to talk about anything important to you. Maybe your current feelings, romance, love, intimacy, massage, tantra.
